"Each pencil is foil stamped with the name of the person. Only one pencil can be removed at a time, it is then sharpened back into the box causing the sharpenings to occupy the space of the used pencils. Over time the pencil box fills with sharpenings - a new ash, transforming it into an urn. The window acts as a timeline, showing you the amount of pencils left as time goes by."
I have read that again and again. What the fuck does it mean?

The box has a pencil sharpener in it*.
You sharpen your PRECIOUS pencils ONLY in the sharpener.
When all the pencils are gone and only sharpenings remain... I don't know. It says 'urn', so maybe you'd want to scatter the 'ashes' somewhere special to the pencils.
Like the office stationary cupboard.
*I think. It's possible you have to provide your own sharpener lest someone use it with a Non-Soylent Pencil.

That makes sense now.
I might do this to my grandad and write swears. "Ha! How are you now, gramps? You are the words 'cunt', 'tits' and 'bollocksack'!"
